Experience
Hybrid GPU Computing Platform
The project involved designing hybrid landing zones that integrated Azure hosting services with a private data center equipped with NVIDIA H100 GPUs. These environments were constructed using Kubernetes, hybrid services, and Azure's serverless computing capabilities. Furthermore, comprehensive end-to-end monitoring was set up utilizing New Relic, APM, and synthetic monitoring to ensure optimal performance and operational visibility.
Serverless Test Execution Hub
I designed and developed an efficient and scalable testing solution for one of my enterprise customers. This project included creating a centralized test execution platform on which all the team members can run their test automation suites in the language of their choice. The platform captures all the reports and output generated by the tests and allows users to access the data via its portal.
CloudOps-managed Cloud for Hitachi Vantara
I spearheaded the creation of a CloudOps-managed cloud, a cutting-edge internal platform tool for Hitachi Vantara, utilizing serverless concepts during its inception. This project involved leading a dedicated team of developers, crafting the core framework in Python to power the application's robust functionalities.
This platform revolutionized the workload for Hitachi Vantara's managed services team, granting them enhanced capabilities to oversee and administer their customers' cloud accounts efficiently. Noteworthy features such as auto-remediation and customer notifications were integrated, enabling immediate actions in response to compliance violations. The system also automated the generation of periodic reports, ensuring timely insights for monthly assessments. Exhibiting remarkable scalability, the platform effortlessly accommodated over 50 customer accounts, cementing its success in optimizing cloud operations.
